In a Norse viking age of axes, sorcery, giants, and dragons - world history and cultural mythology are both equally real and taking place. The globe trekking saga of Fastillion Lemonde begins at his childhood home on the Isle of Vinland during the Norse colonization of the Americas in the 11th Century. Fastillion, of mixed race and the adopted orphan son of his village's Christian priest, he is a young man that can move among the diverse cultures both Norse and native, pagan and Christian. Trained in woodcraft by his native mentor and with refined education from his book-learned father, Fastillion has both the mind and skill that can allow him to survive. When an ancient tribal enemy of all returns from nearly disbelieved legend, they come armed with black magics and the cannibalism-fueled immortality of the Windigo shamans. The viking Norsemen and their native Micmac allies must shake off generations of lazy peaceful living to once again take up their warrior ways. From the author of the ten books of the Gravewalkers survival horror series.
